Wild Fire | Nelson DeMille
3 posts | 17 read
Welcome to the Custer Hill Club--an informal men's club set in a luxurious Adirondack hunting lodge whose members include some of America's most powerful business leaders, military men, and government officials. Ostensibly, the club is a place to gather with old friends, hunt, eat, drink, and talk off-the-record about war, life, death, sex and politics. But one Fall weekend, the Executive Board of the Custer Hill Club gathers to talk about the tragedy of 9/11 and what America must do to retaliate. Their plan is finalized and set into motion.That same weekend, a member of the Federal Anti-Terrorist Task Force is reported missing. His body is soon discovered in the woods near the Custer Hill Club's game reserve. The death appears to be a hunting accident, and that's how the local police first report it, but Detective John Corey has his doubts. As he digs deeper, he begins to unravel a plot involving the Custer Hill Club, a top-secret plan known only by its code name: Wild Fire. Racing against the clock, Detective Corey and his wife, FBI agent Kate Mayfield, find they are the only people in a position to stop the button from being pushed and chaos from being unleashed.

(John Corey #4)Fast paced and a page turner as usual. I just keep thinking what can be really true about his plots....

Back in the the beginning of the Cold War with both the U.S. and the Soviet Union having nuclear capabilities it made them a type of dysfunctional #rocketbrothers (it‘s a stretch, I know) that made them adopt a concept called MAD, mutually assured destruction. Where if one were to destroy the other with missiles the other would immediately send all their missiles that way nothing would be left. Well this book set in the 00‘s plays with that 👇🏼

Reggie Idea. A secret society in the U.S. wants to set off 2 nuclear bombs in 2 U.S cities and afterwards blame it on the Middle East who they would nuke effectively killing over 80 million people all so they could control the oil pipelines. #SeptemberDanes 6y

After reading just over 100 pages, I just can‘t take anymore of this book. The main character is juvenile with humor on par with a middle school student. Despite an interesting concept, I just can‘t make myself Care enough about the story to suffer the main character.
